Google appears to either not screen ads at all or willingly allows misleading and lying ads and scams to reach its users. They profit off fraud by either laziness and ignorance or malice, by letting "ads" like "Your PDF reader needs an update" through. And they don't act on them when they are reported.

Every single company putting ads up in public is held to a higher standard.

All 5 daily users of Bing search were immediately notified of the exploit.
